Glue for mounting tiles "Kreps reinforced"It is a mixture of cement and fine sand with special complementary components. The composition is diluted with running water, a plastic adhesive mixture is subsequently formed, the main characteristic of which is the property of high adhesion with the main surface.
Glue "Kreps reinforced" is used forjoints of ceramic tiles, porcelain, artificial stone with the main surface: cement, dry reinforced concrete and concrete base, cellular concrete, gypsum plasterboard, grooved plasterboard or plasterboard.
Before the start of installation work, the main surface is pretreated, consisting of several stages:
A bag (25 kg) of glue dissolves in water.To prepare the composition you will need a container for mixing the components and water. Water consumption per 25 kg of glue is 6 liters. The powder is poured into water and mixed until the lumps are completely dissolved using a perforator with a special nozzle or manually.
After mixing, the mixture is left for 10-15 minutes, and then stirred again.
Ready glue "Kreps reinforced" can be stored at room temperature for no longer than 4 hours, otherwise it will lose its properties.
"Kreps reinforced" is well suited for finishingworks of any type. The glue is supplemented using an antifreeze compound, which allows the mixture to be used for exterior finishing work at air temperature up to -10 ° C.
The main physical properties of the composition include resistance to low temperatures and moisture.
Laying tiled products made fromporcelain stoneware, it is important to monitor how the material falls on a horizontal area or a vertical surface with a small height. We will understand how to glue the tiles. These exceptional surfaces include parapet, staircase frieze, basement of the building. Depending on the technical characteristics and the type of foundation, the tile needs additional reinforcement: mechanical installation to the facade.
After surface preparation and glue preparationit can be applied on a solid and flat surface of the base of the wall, not subject to shrinkage and deformation. The composition is evenly distributed over the entire working surface where the tile will be laid, using a special notched trowel. Within 20 minutes after applying the “Kreps Reinforced” adhesive, it is necessary to lay tiled products on top of the adhesive layer, leveling and fixing them.
In the case when the glue is used for covering the floor with large-size tiles, the solution is applied both on the tile and on the surface itself, which improves adhesion during laying.
It is important! Putting the tile on the floor, it is recommended not to subject the lining to stress and mechanical stress, to limit contact with water.
"How to glue tiles correctly?" - you ask.Use quality material and properly pick up inventory for work. So, when facing with tiled products with dimensions of 15 x 15, notched trowel No. 6 is used, and for products of size 30 x 30 - No. 8.
Consumption rate of the tile adhesive composition - 2-3 kg per 1 m2. In terms of packaging, it can be said that one bag is enough for facing the surface of 8 m.2.
The rate of glue consumption is indicated for surfaces already prepared for facing. This figure may vary depending on the type of application and professional skills of the person performing the work.
Glue for tiles "Kreps reinforced" is in demand among consumers, as it belongs to the category of goods with high compliance under the item "price-quality".
